This Book Could Save Your Life cover

We all want to be healthier, stronger and live longer, but what really works?

From stress to saturated fats, HIIT to HRT, veganism to vitamins, This Book Could Save Your Life debunks the fads and explores the real science of better health.

What's the best way to lose weight (and keep it off)?

How can you ensure a good night's sleep?

What are the real superfoods?

How can you minimise the risks of getting diabetes, cancer or Alzheimer's?

And how can you slow the ageing process?

Cutting through confusing statistics and terrifying headlines, here is the truth about dieting, drugs, 10,000 steps a day, bacon, calorie-counting, coffee, dairy, sleep, fibre, hangovers, salt, sugar, cardio, sunscreen, statins, vitamins, and much more.

Full of the latest research and ground-breaking evidence, packed with useful advice, this book really could save your life.

Graham Lawton has spent his career researching the science of living longer. Here he sorts the facts from the fads * The Times *
Lawton is living proof that you don't have to be fanatical about diet and exercise to be reasonably healthy and fit * Irish Examiner *
